#1 NPR has been very successful in getting private endowments and grants. I would suggest a multi-year phaseout of govt funding. Maybe 3 years to zero out. One could advocate a complete cutoff, but a compromise of 3 years would fly better, IMHO. Then again some LLL types with rabies would go ballistic over just the idea.

#2 I doubt that privatization could reduce teh incredibly low standard of the NPR product.
